History

[edit]

The project was originally created in 1481[2] and imitated a Chinese pattern for geographies.[3] In 1530, five more books were added, making the series an expanded edition. Thus the word shinjeung (新增) was added to indicate the expansion of content, with the total of 55 books.[1] The enlarged edition was compiled by Lee Haeng and Yun Eun-bo.[2]

The book was more of a guidebook for a separate map rather than actual cartography.[1] Each book started with the drawing of the overall view of the regions covered, and wrote about the history, customs, temples, mausoleums, palaces and administrative quarters and educational institutions thereafter.[4] The book contained prologues written by Confucian scholars of the times.[4]
